Looking for a Sci Fi RPG

[Maquise]

I've asked about sci fi RPGs in the past, but never found what I'm looking for. Specifically, I would like:

• Something free, available off of the internet
• Something that can easily be adapted for a homebrew setting
• Something that includes options for multiple modules, such as space combat, psionics, etc.

Is there anything like that available?

GURPS Lite is an option. It's not specifically Sci-fi, but it's a universal system, so, it's always an option.

I don't like GURPS, but, for what you're asking for, there's not much else I can think of.

Well, there's FATE Core, a generic, rules-light system easily adapted to just about everything with some refluffing. The PDF should be coming out this month.

There's also Hulks & Horrors. It's an AD&D clone which fits your specifications totally, but it's an AD&D clone, with everything that entails. You can find the free version on DrivethruRPG.

I looked at FATE, but I don't really think its what I'm looking for. Its a bit too narrative; I'd like something more on the gaming end of the spectrum.

d6 Space? It's free on RPGnet, along with a whole bunch of other d6 systems and expansion books. I think it was adapted from an old Star Wars system.

Stars Without Number is free and fairly easy to mold into your own vision since it's based on BECMI. Supposedly, it's very, very good.

Also, an oldie, but a goodie (and I can't believe I forgot this in my initial response): Star Frontiers. Yes, it's legitimately free.

Eclipse Phase is a fantastic and completely free RPG, though if you enjoy the game i recommend buying the books as they are quite pretty and it will help support the company.
